I believe the last new addition to the air or ground lineup was 4 years ago. C'mon...throw us a bone.

No idea about the last vehicle introduced, but the most recent bomber was the Tu-2 in January 2014.  The most recent fighters were the Yak-3 and Yak-7 in July 2013.

Don't hold your breath.

They've been updating existing ancient models.  Personally I think it's a pretty decent idea.  Much as I'd like a G55...

I absolutely agree that this game desperately needs new non-VR content.
I still play with keypad views for cod sake, so this VR stuff is meaningless to me. I am sure that I am not the only VR-challenged player.

Being disabled... I (at this point) cannot afford a vr setup BUT I don't have a problem

Ehh I dunno. I've seen it and used it and I just have no interest or desire to invest into it.

Not before 180 deg fov. The hardware might noy be too far away in the form of starvr, but that's not marketed to end users, and then that of course requires a different kind of projection. So sadly it will still take quite a while. Let's hope there's enough momentum to get there.

So Hitech is not doing things for the none VR customers. Any of you helping test the new patch Skuzzy posted becasue of a major change Hitech is rolling out? Not very sexy in the terms of toys but, this has to get done to keep making the game better for everyone. The Man has been very busy for us.


/********************** version 3.04 patch 1 ************************/
1. Switch to a new internal browser using Chromium Embedded Framework instead of awesomium.

2. Now using Vissual studio 2017 for compilations.

4. Fixed a bug with the object editor not importing DOF nodes correctly.

5. Fixed a CTD when trying to schedual a mission in custom arenas.

5. Fixed a CTD when trying to auto complete segments with out having created a flight.
